This is extending patchwatcher too far, and it puts an unnecessary
burden on Alexandre to reply to the system.  In my experience, and not
just with my patches, there is rarely a pending state for a patch.
There is often an "I'm not sure about it" state, but that basically
means the patch is rejected.  The point of patchwatcher is to help the
patch submitter in that he can quickly see if some of the basic
requirements of a patch are not fulfilled (things he should be
checking anyway).
